Franks started getting pushed aside after the opportunity to hit Mullah Omar with a Predator launched Hellfire was fonged away. Franks was advised by a JAG officer that it might not be legal to kill a political leader. A lot of people have seen something like this coming. Hell, if Franks can't keep the job having graduated from the same high school two classes ahead of the first lady then he has some issues.

Didn't know him in OCS, but it was just a mill then. Keep your mouth shut, pass a few tests, graduate with gold bars. None of the Tac officers were RVN vets, still teaching line, as opposed to circular emplacement of howitzers, etc.

We probably graduated 70% of our class, which was about 20% too high.

Did you know that the same female AF full bird who advised the Gen. also accused the Marine Gen who went in first of only wanting to "kill" people when he refused her ROE as to restrictive.
